promise. ”
    Kristina finally nodded. “I’ll take the job.  Thank you so much.”
    “You didn’t ask me what it pays. Or what I will need from you.” Suzanne raised her eyebrow.
    Kristina shrugged. “It doesn’t matter. You’re right.  I’d be a fool to pass up an opportunity like this. I’ve got to stop being so a fr aid and reach out for new experiences, especially as a writer. I promise Ms. Bichat, I’ll do my best to make you proud.”
    “Call me Suzanne. Bec ause this is a new situation for you, I suggest that you start keeping a personal journal of your questions, thoughts, feelings, and impulses.  Even the intimate and uncomfortable ones will help you become more aware of those around you and your perception of them. Just remember th at the basics of p hilosophy will be the thing you’ll need to give you true insight into your study. I’ll download the research folder to you so you can start adding information as you gather facts.”
    “I h ave a question. How do you make a fact out of something that’s so subjectively personal and private?  I wouldn’t even know what type of questions to ask if I ever met anyone who was into this.”
    “Start from the beginning. You need to take the first step towards a goal before you can achieve it.  What do you think th at would be ? T ake the idea literally. ”
    Kristina thought for a second about Bryon’s st atement concerning how he worked a play in his game book. “You have to first crawl, then stand and walk.”
    “Go on,” Suzanne urged, pleased to see that Bryon’s assistance was already getting the girl pointed in the right direction for her studies.
    “The three positions allow us to view our world from five different perspectives.”
    “Interesting.  Why five and not three?” Suzanne was intrigued.
    “Before you can crawl, you have to be able to roll over.  The fourth perspective is looking up, the fifth is looking down.” Kristin a considered Bryon’s lesson about the box, and that it actually served a purpose beyond giving her headaches.
    “Excellent!” Suzanne clapped her hands happily while Kristina blushed with pleasure at her Professor’s praise. “Let’s not forget looking from side to side and behind. Ok, now wrap it up, my girl! Go beyond the liter al. ”
    “Don’t you have to be cognitive of the past, present and future before you can recognize a goal for what it is?” Kristin a asked, uncertain if this response was what her teacher sought.
    “Amazing!  I need to give that boy a huge hug!” Suzanne was thrilled at Kristina’s progress in just two tutoring sessions.  The young woman w a s taking everything Bryon talked about to both heart and mind!
    “I suspect he’d be just as happy with a couple of blackberry pies and a gallon of Rocky Road ice cream,” Kristina commented, feeling a little twinge of jealousy.  Where did that come from?  Bryon and Suzanne were good friends; that was all.  She also suspected that dear Professor Bichat had something to do with the young, handsome man with light brown hair who came to her class twice a week. And th at her interest had nothing to do with his schoolwork.
    “That he would, Kristina; that he would.  I’m impressed in how you managed to get his favorite desert information out of him without even cooking dinner,” Suzanne mentioned merrily, not missing the little green monster pop out briefly from the girl’s eyes.  Suzanne had known for a long time about how charming and enjoyable Bryon was, so Kristina’s instant sense of possession truly did not surprise her. In fact, it pleased her to no end!
    “Why would knowing someone’s favorite desert be impressive?”
    “Bryon is a sly little fox in a very big, hungry body.  His sister is a culinary student and had to try every dessert recipe she could come up with to finally get a worthwhile response.  It took her four months.”
    “I’m sure he m anaged to enjoy all the other things she made in the
